The New York Jets could be first in line for this year’s series that has featured four teams – Baltimore (2001), Dallas (2002, 2008), Kansas City (2007) and Cincinnati (2009).

The Texans were invited to appear last year but decided it wasn’t the right time.

Between Ryan, some very outspoken players, a dynamic young QB, and a surprise playoff run, this could be a slam dunk for the HBO. As the Daily News reported, the Jets brass was at the Pacquiao fight last weekend with the HBO brass.
